Gregor Nicholas

Gregor is one of New Zealand's most highly awarded commercial directors.

Among his accolades have been Gold Axis awards, Cannes Lions, the Croisette d'Or Grand Prix at the Cannes Music Film Awards, as well as numerous honours at prestigious film festivals like Venice, Berlin and Chicago. His internationally acclaimed semi-autobiographical short film "Avondale Dogs" is on the Guardian's list of the ten best short films of all time. Whether orchestrating large-scale visceral action set pieces or crafting emotionally authentic performances, Gregor always brings great character, detail and atmosphere to his work. His ability to capture moments of intimate drama or subtle humour with his actors is the trademark of his work, which has enriched the creative ideas of clients like Heineken, Nike, Toyota, Gatorade, Volkswagen, BMW and adidas.
